Moving virtual pc images from one pc to another

I'm familiar with cloning a drive and recognize it's limitations in
that a clone image can't be easily applied to another workstation that

Does the same hold true with virtual pc or can a virtual pc be moved
from one pc to another regardless of if the hardware is the same or
different?

Thank you
